The men’s tennis team improved to 2-1 on the season with a 5-2 road victory over Lehigh this past Sunday, Feb. 1. After losing the doubles point 2-1, the Hawks bounced back and won five of six singles matches to get the win.
Victor Pugliese, Przemyslaw Filipek, Ale Gomez Estrada, Bee Kumthonkittikul, and Luke Adamus were the five Hawks to win their individual match at the number one, two, three, five, and six spots respectively. The team next faces NJIT on Thursday, Feb. 13.
The mens basketball team fell to 12-11 overall and 8-4 in the MAAC after an 87-76 home loss to the Manhattan Jaspers. Despite scoring an impressive 52 points in the second half, the Hawks could not overcome an 18 point halftime deficit.
Sophomore point guard Justin Robinson led MU with 19 points, while Manhattan’s Emmy Andujar was dominant, scoring a game high 27 points on 8-10 shooting. MU is currently tied with the Jaspers in conference standings, and will look to jump ahead this Thursday, Feb. 5 when they travel to Quinnipiac.
